So? Independent news sources almost always have a non-mainstream political bent; that's why the writers aren't just writing in the New York Times. I don't think most people understand "weeding out fake news" to mean "only allowing a narrow spectrum of respectable opinion." And these sources do real reporting and break real news.

So that, unlike what OP mentioned, independent sources aren't being "punished", heavily biased sources are.
Which is fine, IMHO.
Notice that Mother Jones (independent, leftist) and Fox News (non-independent, large) have not been "punished".
